"Let me tell you something. I've been around campaigns for a long time, and I have never seen a midterm election with this many races in play," he writes in an e-mail to supporters of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC). Translation: we’re about to get spanked big-time by the GOP.

"That's why my friends at the DCCC have a strategy in place to secure victory in these final days."

The goal is to raise $250,000 before Election Day Tuesday. The money will be allocated to rapid response ads and "state-of-the-art voter contact efforts." Prayer would probably serve the Democrats better, as Republicans are almost sure to take over the House and possibly the Senate too.
